Stuff you should know before starting 
| As always a nice project starts with a nice plan.
For this project I use cheap pine and I only use hand tools. Dimensions are 500mm x 400mm x 200 mm |
The Making of
|
The sides and back are dovetailed together. The front rails are set in a small groove in the sides. The drawers runners are glued and nailed in place. |
|
The two drawers were made “traditionally” with 2 half lap dovetails on each side at front and mortise and tenons in the back. (As a note the gap in bottom dovetail is the drawer bottom rail) |
|
The bottom groove was made with a combination hand plane Stanley #50. The material used for the bottom drawer is MDF 3mm. |
|
The top shelf is made in pine with a rim of 30mm in the sides and back, in the front the shelf was rounded with a hand plane. |
|
As predicted, it feels like a glove to the place I made it for. |
|
The I installed round handles made of beech. |
|
Then the finish was water based, stained mahogany, varnish. |
|
And that’s how it looks in my shop. |
